"Local Common Sense Conservation"

The Garfield County Conservation District is a local sub-division of state government. The district was formed in 1945 to ensure local people are involved in conservation activities.

The main goal of the district is to provide services to land users in protecting and conserving natural resources and to provide a link to state and federal conservation agencies and programs.

The Conservation District shares office space with the Natural Resources Conservation Service, a federal agency in the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The NRCS provides technical assistance to the conservation districts and district cooperators and administer several USDA technical and cost share programs.

Funding from the Garfield County Conservation District comes from a maximum of 1.5 mills levied on real property tax within the district. To meet expenses, the GCCD must seek funding through state and federal grants as well as other innovative sources.

The district invites you to attend our monthly board meeting held on the first Thursday of each month. Please call to confirm time and location.
